Can you explain how to do this one?
• write a hypothesis to explain changes in water salinity in high latitude ocean regions

At high latitudes, thermocline is absent, thus salinity determines density.

Hey guys!

So, have any of you guys found any books/particular resources that are particularly helpful to study from for this event?

Oceanography is often times taught as a college class, so there are a bunch of lectures and textbooks out there to study from. If you just look up "introductory oceanography textbook" you'll get tons of good books.
